Strive for a day's drive away from family
Close enough to get back and be around frequently, but far enough away to do your own thing and not be caught in the family drama stuff. Phoenix, Vegas, Boise, Denver, SoCal, NoCal are top places for my wife and I in the future.

How often do you see your in-laws/family at that distance?

2-3 times a month. Depends on activities we have going on. We go up at least once for Sunday dinner.
